FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE
Figurative language is when you use a word or phrase that does not have its normal everyday, literal meaning. ... There are a few different ways to use figurative language, including metaphors, similes, personification and hyperbole.
COUGH DROPS AT SCHOOL
During the school day, cough drops can only be used in the Nurse's Office, as they are a potential choking hazard.
If is necessary for your child to have cough drops at school, please send the cough drops to the Nurse's Office in a labeled bag, and include a note indicating that you give permission for your student to have cough drops at school. Thanks so much!
